Abbotsholme School is an independent and boarding school for boys and girls aged 2 to 18, set within 140 acres of beautiful countryside on the Derbyshire and Staffordshire border.

Abbotsholme School was established in 1889 by Cecil Reddie as an experiment for his progressive educational philosophies and theories. The School favoured a less rigid environment and more liberal education.

Abbotsholme aims to provide:

•Knowledge to help everyone achieve and succeed to the best of their individual academic ability.

•An understanding of the natural environment and the importance of protecting it.

•Challenges which build strength and test courage, as well as providing a stimulating and enjoyable experience.

The aims and values

The school’s founder created five core values to which they hold true today: courage, honesty, humility, integrity and respect.
